no gonna lie, i was hoping to learn more about what happened as well. If this is a sore subject, then i completely understand, but i was excited for the project.

Greatl ooking work with the red mulch, i almost feel like in the south the red mulch enhances the landscape cuz everything is so much drier there! It brings some life to the house and everything and boldens the yard up! Edging looks great

I'll help change the subject real quick!
Jacob - not trying to hijack your thread, but I know millions of ppl follow this one!
If anybody is looking for a REALLY good long bed Dodge 2500 quad cab (2006 - so pre-emission control stuff) with 42000 miles on it - I traded one in at Steve White Motors in Hickory NC Saturday.
Jacob - I built what I think you would love. If you get a second to look in the trucks and trailers forum - i have pics in the detachable dovetail thread.
I am alot like you - lots of different projects! I tried to build the most versitile truck that I could think of.
Flatbed dump with a detachable dovetail. Now I just have to build about 10 different sets of walls and a leaf box and whatever else I can come up with.
